Good tool for troubleshooting our website

It's a rather complex environment.

Fantastic Product
Valuable Features:
Easy product to set up and very little administration once the product is in operation. Real User traffic 24x7, nice reports, and our customer is very satisfied with the results.
The Dashboard gives us a quick view of where the application problem is which means quicker resolution times.
Room for Improvement:
Probably, like so many other products out there, the database reporting engine has an awful lot of metrics that can be used for reports. Could also be considered Pros!Pleased with the attention that Compuware gives their customers and the support process, when needed, works rather smoothly.
Other Advice:
The customer that we are using the product for is extremely pleased with the reports and detail of information that they are receiving on-line, 24x7.

two queries -
1 > Is it giving real or emulated browser measurements?
2> Is it able to capture out of browser pop-up windows without need to do extra scripting work?

Dynatrace Technical Consultant at Mediro ICT
Used for application performance monitoring
Pros and Cons
- "The solution's most valuable features are AI and root cause analysis."
- "The solution's user interface could be improved."
What is our primary use case?
The solution is predominantly used for application performance monitoring.
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable features are AI and root cause analysis. These two features maintain a chain of dependencies so that everyone knows about the things that depend on each other across all the parts of this application.
What needs improvement?
The solution's user interface could be improved. Because of the browser metaphor, you must click multiple times, which is not as slick as a purpose-designed user interface.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Dynatrace for a few years.
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Complex environments are ..... well... complex, and they require a capability that can keep pace. I agree it is no simple task to build DCRUM infra, and the amount of detail required to essentially pluck a single application's packets out from total traffic can be tedious to gather. That said, the latest version has simplified with auto-protocol discovery and all traffic analysis functions. Still have to get SSL keys to really dig into the transaction detail, but it is worth the effort.
